PhD program in SLHS

[ravyn]

Hi all,

 

I feel like I might be the only one here "aspiring" to get a PhD in this small field. I am wondering if anyone else is doing the same.

 

Are any of you SLP people moving on to get the PhD?

 

The only people I can talk to about this stuff is the professors at my undergraduate university, but I am too shy to talk to them (I wish talking to professors felt more casual). I am currently an intern in a psycholinguistics lab (I really like it), but I again, I am not even 90% comfortable expressing my interests to her. I love cognitive psychology/speech&language, but I want my research to translate well into the medical area somehow and be a part of a research team in a hospital/medical center or something along those lines.

 

I don't know, I feel lost/scared/confused and I'd like to bounce ideas of you guys??
